    The transcription factors TFE3 and TFEB amplify p53 dependent transcriptional programs in response to DNA damage

    Owen A Brady, Eutteum Jeong ... Rosa Puertollano
    Disruption of TFEB and TFE3 results in diminished p53 signaling capacity and altered cell cycle regulation under genotoxic stress conditions.

    Sucrose intensity coding and decision-making in rat gustatory cortices

    Esmeralda Fonseca, Victor de Lafuente ... Ranier Gutierrez
    The neural representation of perceived sucrose intensity was contained in the firing rate and spike-timing of a 'small' population of neurons distributed across the Insula and Orbitofrontal taste cortices.

    Gene flow mediates the role of sex chromosome meiotic drive during complex speciation

    Colin D Meiklejohn, Emily L Landeen ... Daven C Presgraves
    Selfish genetic elements may either promote or prevent the evolution of reproductive barriers, depending on the extent of gene flow between species.

    Random-sequence genetic oligomer pools display an innate potential for ligation and recombination

    Hannes Mutschler, Alexander I Taylor ... Philipp Holliger
    Random sequence RNA pools display an innate capacity for ligation and recombination, enabling them to “bootstrap” themselves towards higher compositional, informational and structural complexity.

    Rotavirus VP3 targets MAVS for degradation to inhibit type III interferon expression in intestinal epithelial cells

    Siyuan Ding, Shu Zhu ... Harry B Greenberg
    Rotavirus infection induces phosphorylation and proteasomal degradation of MAVS to suppress host antiviral interferon signaling.

    Convergence of monosynaptic and polysynaptic sensory paths onto common motor outputs in a Drosophila feeding connectome

    Anton Miroschnikow, Philipp Schlegel ... Michael J Pankratz
    A parallel neuronal network architecture ensures control of basic feeding reflex circuits via integration of crossmodal sensory information to filter multiple biological events and enhance meaningful behavioral choice.

    SETD3 protein is the actin-specific histidine N-methyltransferase

    Sebastian Kwiatkowski, Agnieszka K Seliga ... Jakub Drozak
    Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SETD3 (NP_115609.2) was identified as the actin-specific histidine N-methyltransferase, an enzyme catalyzing the extremely well-conserved methylation of H73 in β-actin.

    HIPPO signaling resolves embryonic cell fate conflicts during establishment of pluripotency in vivo

    Tristan Frum, Tayler M Murphy, Amy Ralston
    HIPPO signaling antagonizes the apical domain of polarized cells, driving cell internalization, regulated gene expression, and cell fate change during formation of pluripotent stem cell progenitors in the mouse embryo.

    Splicing factors Sf3A2 and Prp31 have direct roles in mitotic chromosome segregation

    Claudia Pellacani, Elisabetta Bucciarelli ... Maria Patrizia Somma
    Extensive cytological and biochemical analyses show that the conserved Sf3A2 and Prp31 splicing factors bind microtubules and the Ndc80 complex, playing direct mitotic functions in both Drosophila and human mitosis.

    Subunit exchange enhances information retention by CaMKII in dendritic spines

    Dilawar Singh, Upinder Singh Bhalla
    Due to subunit-exchange, CaMKII can store information at diverse time-scales and might play a central role in the memory maintenance.
